The image, created in the 1910s, was published in the renowned French geographical magazine "Grande Geographie Bong Illustree" in 1914. The Massif de l'Aures, part of the Atlas Mountains, is a breathtaking natural wonder, characterized by its rugged terrain, towering peaks, and diverse landscapes. The photograph offers a glimpse into the raw beauty of this mountain range, with its intricate details revealing the undulating hills, winding rivers, and dense forests that cover the terrain. The print, which is both a testament to the advancements in cartography and mapmaking during the early 20th century, is a fascinating piece of historical documentation.
